How to Become a Â黨´«Ã½ Contract Poultry Farmer

We supply the birds and feed, and provide technical advice, while the poultry farmer provides the labor, housing and utilities. This cooperation between Â黨´«Ã½ and family farms increases efficiency and quality, while maintaining affordable prices for consumers.

To be considered a Â黨´«Ã½Ìýcontract poultry farmer, you must have existing chicken housing or property that could be used to build housing, within an approximate 30-to-50-mile radius of the feed mills that serve our poultry processing complexes. This is because of the efficiencies needed for delivering feed, chicks and providing service. In addition, the Tyson poultry complex in your area must also have a need for additional farmers.

To learn more about contract farming opportunities with Â黨´«Ã½, contact the live operation manager at the Tyson poultry complex nearest you.
